At the afternoon tea adjournment the sincere sympathy of the president and members was extended to Mrs. Carseldine, as a social member of the club, in the recent loss of her husband. Owing to the departure of Mrs. O'Connell, who is now residing in Brisbane, Mrs. Webber kindly consented to accept the office of treasurer. A circular from the Legacy Club received the sympathy of the president and members and the sum of £5/5/- was voted to that appeal.
